Add Information to Record of a Person who served during the Second World War on The Wartime Memories Project Website

241890 Gnr. Cyril Mason British Army 260th Field Regiment Royal Artillery from:Maghull, near Liverpool Cyril Mason was a commercial artist and amateur film maker, and on his death in 1982 a small collection of his drawings and film titles was given to one of his friends. The drawings appear to be of PoWs and their Japanese guards at Changi and from these and the titles it seems that Cyril was making a film. Cyril's Service Record was obtained, which locates him in the UK up until 24th of August 1942 (part of this time he spent in hospital), and again in the UK from 9th of January 1944. However, it doesn't say where he was posted between these dates, which begs the question - could he have been a prisoner himself, and the drawings made from his own memories? In the Service Record under 'Nature of Engagement' it says 'A.O. CMAO'. It would be interesting to find out what this means, and also to see if there is any information about the whereabouts of the Royal Artillery 260th Field Regiment for the dates in question. Cyril was also involved in 34th and 39th Signal Training Regiment.
